Etymology
The word 'righter' is derived from the verb 'right', which has its origins in Old English 'riht', meaning 'just', 'true', or 'straight'. This word has cognates in various languages, including Old High German 'riha' and Latin 'rectus', both conveying a sense of correctness or straightness. Over time, the suffix '-er' was added to form a noun indicating someone who performs an action, which in this case is the action of making something 'right'. Historically, the term has been used in various contexts, often associated with moral or ethical actions aimed at correcting wrongs in society. The concept of being a 'righter' aligns with philosophical ideas about justice and morality, reflecting human society's ongoing pursuit of fairness and rectitude.
